After retiring from the Army, I founded two national organizations and opened my dental practice, all while overcoming a stroke and cancer.
We would like to thank you for supporting Dr. Nia. F. Rashad in this year's competition. Your support helps us contribute to the National Breast Cancer Foundation who provides early detection, education, and support services to those affected by breast cancer.
Being over 40 has brought me a renewed sense of purpose and fulfillment. At 58, I embrace my age unapologetically, recognizing the wisdom and experiences that come with it. My education has shaped my worldview, and I am grateful for a stable, fulfilling career that fuels my passions. I prioritize my health, which empowers me to enjoy life to the fullest. Confidence now defines me, allowing me to pursue what I love without hesitation. This stage of life feels vibrant, and I cherish every moment.
How do you stay fabulous?To stay fit, I focus on nurturing my mind, body, and soul. I read extensively, which stimulates my intellect and expands my horizons. My physical routine includes exercising 4 to 5 days a week, complemented by a healthy diet that fuels my energy. Spiritually, I find peace through daily study of the Word of God, which enriches my faith. I also practice meditation, allowing time for relaxation and reflection. This holistic approach keeps me balanced and centered, enhancing my overall well-being.
What would you do with the $40,000?With $40,000, my first priority would be to replenish my retirement fund, which was depleted during my breast cancer treatment journey. This step is crucial for my future security. Next, I would treat myself to a much-needed vacation to recharge and celebrate life. Finally, I would invest in long-overdue house repairs and renovations, ensuring my living space is comfortable and welcoming. This financial boost would help restore balance in my life and create lasting memories.
